Route Description
Start Point: Dolgellau
Dolgellau to Barmouth, via Cadair Idris
An epic climb to end an epic adventure. The iconic Cadair Idris sits at the bottom end of Snowdonia but it’s imposing shape casts an imposing shadow over the landscape. Accessible right to the very top, if you are lucky with the weather you can see for miles and miles. Be warned, the road out of Arthog is very steep but as with everywhere in North Wales, you are rewarded for the climbs with fun, fast and flowing descents.
